Production

Development

In September 2013, AMC announced they were developing a companion series to The Walking Dead,[44] which follows a different set of characters created by Robert Kirkman.[45] In September 2014, AMC ordered a pilot, which was written by Kirkman and Dave Erickson, and directed by Adam Davidson,[46] and is executive produced by Kirkman, Erickson, Gale Anne Hurd, and David Alpert, with Erickson serving as showrunner.[47] The project was originally known as Cobalt;[48] Kirkman confirmed, in March 2015, that the series would be titled Fear the Walking Dead.[49] On March 9, 2015, AMC announced it had ordered Fear the Walking Dead to series, with a two-season commitment. The series premiered on August 23, 2015.[50]

Casting

The primary characters from the first season include (from left to right): Alicia, Nick, Madison, Travis, Liza, Chris, Daniel, Griselda, and Ofelia

In December 2014, the first four starring roles were cast: Kim Dickens as Madison, the female lead; Cliff Curtis as Travis Manawa, the male lead; Frank Dillane as Nick; and Alycia Debnam-Carey as Alicia.[51][52][53] In April and May 2015, Elizabeth Rodriguez and Mercedes Mason were announced as series regulars, both in unknown roles.[54][55]

In November 2017, it was reported that Lennie James who portrays Morgan Jones on The Walking Dead would crossover and join the main cast in the fourth season.[56] The fourth season also sees the additions of several new series regulars, played by Garret Dillahunt,[57] Jenna Elfman,[58] and Maggie Grace.[59]

Filming

Production of the pilot episode began in early 2015 and ended on February 6, 2015.[60][61] The pilot episode was filmed in Los Angeles; the remaining first-season episodes were filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[62][63] Production on the remaining five first-season episodes began on May 11, 2015.[5] Adam Davidson, who directed the pilot, also directed the series' second and third episodes.[5]

Filming for the second season began in December 2015, with production moving to Baja California, Mexico.[64] Locations included Rosarito (sea scenes and hotel) and Valle de Guadalupe (Abigail's vineyard). The sea scenes were filmed using a horizon tank at Baja Film Studios. An additional scene from the season one finale was filmed in The Sunken City, San Pedro, Los Angeles.[65]

Filming for the third season began on January 6, 2017, in Baja California, Mexico, with some of the same location sites used for the second half of season two.[66] Additional locations in Tijuana Municipality included Avenida Revolución,[67] Abelardo L.

Season 1

On Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has a rating of 78%, based on 59 reviews, whose average rating is 6.8/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Fear the Walking Dead recycles elements of its predecessor, but it's still moody and engrossing enough to compete with the original."[73] On Metacritic, the season has a score of 66 out of 100, based on 33 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[74]

Elisabeth Vincentelli of the New York Post rated the first two episodes three out of four stars, stating that "[They] are creepily suspenseful–they're great examples of how effective a slow pace and a moody atmosphere can be."[79] Another positive review of the first episode came from Ken Tucker of Yahoo TV, who wrote, "Fear the Walking Dead is a mood piece, more artful than the original series" and that the cast is "terrific".[80] Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter gave an average review, writing, "The 90-minute first episode and the hour-long second episode are, while not actually boring, certainly less magnetic than the original."[81]

One of the harshest negative reviews came from HitFix, on Daniel Fienberg and Alan Sepinwall's podcast, where Fienberg called the premiere episode "awful, just horrible ... as bad as The Walking Dead has ever gotten at its very worst. This is that bad. I've been kind of stunned to see people being generous to it. ... I thought this was almost unwatchably bad." Sepinwall called his B− review "slightly generous".[82][83]

Season 2

The second season received mostly mixed reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the season has a rating of 71%, based on 29 reviews, whose average rating is 6.6/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Fear the Walking Dead sets sail in its sophomore season with an intriguing backdrop that doesn't always disguise its deficiencies in comparison to its predecessor."[75] On Metacritic, the season has a score of 54 out of 100, based on 12 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[76]

Season 3

On Rotten Tomatoes, the third season has an approval rating of 80% based on 8 reviews, with an average rating of 7.5/10.[77] In his season review for IGN, Matt Fowler gave it an 8.2 out of 10 and wrote, "Fear the Walking Dead more solidly found its tone and voice this season by embracing the arid landscape, ramping up the human-on-human conflict, and rallying around Kim Dickens' anti-hero mom, Madison, as the driving character" and that it is now "a better series overall than The Walking Dead".[84]

Season 4

On Rotten Tomatoes, the fourth season has an approval rating of 77% based on 73 reviews, with an average rating of 7.02/10.[78] TVLine reevaluated the series for its fourth season, giving it a grade of a "B+". Reviewer Charlie Mason wrote, "it's gone from being an adequate stopgap between seasons of The Walking Dead to a show that's as good or arguably even better than the one from which it was spun off." He also praised the addition of Jenna Elfman and Garret Dillahunt and that season 4 has had several genuine surprises in its storytelling.[85]

Ratings

The U.S. series premiere attracted 10.1 million total viewers, with 6.3 million in the advertiser-coveted 18-to-49-year-old demographic, both cable television records for a series premiere.[86][87] Numerous international debuts of the pilot also set ratings records.[69] The first season averaged 11.2 million viewers in "live plus-3" ratings (includes VOD and DVR viewing within three days after initial telecast) to become the highest-rated first season of any series in cable history.[88]
